The Witcher: Elemental Lords

The entrance of the City Lord's mansion was bustling, resembling a morning vegetable market. Some of the people who came here to work were still not used to it, but with the Public Security Department and the Military Department maintaining order, the scene was relatively peaceful. Soon they discovered that no one was deliberately causing trouble; it seemed they were purely there to watch the excitement.

At eight o'clock, the Public Security Department started work.

On Tai Luo Street, dozens of carriages came from afar, divided into different camps, slowly approaching. They stopped in the square in front of the City Lord's mansion. The large formation brought immense pressure to everyone.

At this moment, everyone focused their attention there.

They then saw that the Marcia family, the Lant family, the Sikong family, and a series of smaller families belonging to them were all present. Some brought many people, some only the head of the family, but added together, the number was considerable, a mighty throng.

All of them strode into the Public Security Department with imposing momentum.

With such a powerful aura, the surrounding people dared not even breathe loudly. They looked at them with awe; these were the most powerful people in Walsenburg.

Soon after this group of carriages entered, some more carriages arrived in twos and threes from afar. These people were all nobles.

The crowd whispered among themselves.

"Do you think, if Wizard Dole is suppressed, who will sell so many good potions in the future?"

"Isn't there still the Potion Masters' Guild?"

"Tch, if it weren't for Wizard Dole, would the Potion Masters' Guild be so diligent in production? Don't you know what it was like before?"

"Hey, now that you mention it, it's true. I hope Wizard Dole doesn't fall."

At this moment, another person interjected, "Whether he falls or not is not up to us. We are just ordinary adventurers; it depends on those big shots."

"Wizard Dole has touched too many people's interests in recent years. He was questioned as soon as he returned. This must have been a pre-arranged matter."

"Is there even a need to say that?" one person said in an extremely exaggerated tone.

A quiet buzz rippled through the square, and soon voices began to rise from all directions as everyone discussed.

"Hey, you guys probably don't know, but the Glory Wizard Alliance has also gotten involved. They haven't issued merit points to Wizard Dole."

"Really? The Glory Wizard Alliance isn't a place for nobles; can their hands reach so far?"

"I'm not sure, but I heard it said that way. Otherwise, Wizard Dole should already be a noble by now."

"So, the Glory Wizard Alliance has also deteriorated."

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding people immediately fell silent, and the person quickly shut his mouth, no longer speaking.

...

A group of wizards quietly approached from afar. Hearing these words, the leader's expression changed slightly.

The Glory Wizard Alliance has deteriorated?

These words were simply a slap in their faces. The Glory Wizard Alliance represented the interests of wizards, the interests of the Empire. It had always been just, fair, and credible. When had it been said to have deteriorated?

But what the people said was also true. For a moment, the entire wizard team's expressions turned gloomy.

The leader, however, remained calm, as if he had expected this to happen.

The leader was Puyousi. Behind him were a group of vice-chairmen, elders, and stewards.

Puyousi walked while glancing back. He didn't say anything, but Joseph, the instigator, was drenched in cold sweat.

He dared not even lift his head, and endless fear arose in his heart. After this incident, his position would probably be over.

Thinking of this, he became somewhat afraid.

However, he did not regret it, because he was not the only one who had done this; there were many others, many people.

Joseph thought that after this matter, Lord Puyousi would have a reason to take action against those noble stewards in the Glory Wizard Alliance.

This one had long been dissatisfied with the noble factions.

In recent years, the nobles had plundered everything they could plunder and co-opted every talent they could co-opt. The Glory Wizard Alliance had long become a backyard for the nobles, but Puyousi had never interfered. Joseph knew that it was not that he didn't care, but that he was waiting for an opportunity. Now, that opportunity had arrived.

In the square, the people were discussing, when suddenly the sound diminished.

The people from the Glory Wizard Alliance were coming. When they saw the leader, everyone gasped.

What they had just discussed had probably been heard by this one. For a moment, everyone turned their heads away, not daring to look this way.

A big deal, a big deal.

The faces of the people from the Glory Wizard Alliance were also unsightly at this time, especially those noble descendants, who glared fiercely at the surrounding people. These people were truly malicious, saying such things.

For a moment, the square suddenly became quiet, and it was eerily quiet.

Upstairs in the City Lord's mansion, two people were watching this scene, with playful expressions.

"I didn't expect Lord Puyousi to personally attend the questioning session. This is interesting."

The speaker was the contemporary patriarch of the Rhine family, and also the City Lord, Dairuled.

Beside him was the Deputy City Lord, Hossbin, who was the patriarch of the Glory family. Together with the Rhine family, one as the head and the other as the deputy, they jointly maintained the interests of Walsenburg.

Hossbin shook his head, "This time these people have acted somewhat disgracefully. It would be fine normally, but this time they stretched their hands into the Glory Wizard Alliance. They really thought that with money and power, they could do whatever they wanted."

Dairuled glanced at Hossbin and smiled faintly, "For some people, money is indeed omnipotent. Isn't that the case? They pushed Dole to the questioning session. Who dares to say they don't have the ability."

Hossbin turned his head and looked at Dairuled with a strange expression, "Hehe, City Lord, your move can be said to be beautiful. The questioning session begins, Puyousi arrives, and the legion commander supports from behind. On the surface, it seems that Dole must lose this meeting, but in reality, it is still unknown."

Dairuled did not turn his head to look at Hossbin, and his tone suddenly turned cold. His little tricks could not be hidden from this Deputy City Lord.

"I am only following the trend. They want what they want, and I just give them what they want, just fanning the flames in the middle. I just took this opportunity to knock on some people. Puyousi came to me a few days ago and talked about this matter."

Hossbin nodded and said in a solemn tone, "That's good too. Rectify the atmosphere to prevent others from looking down on our management of Walsenburg."

Dairuled smiled, "Are you going to participate in this grand play?"

Hossbin nodded and said, "Of course, I have to watch."

...

As waves of people entered the City Lord's mansion and went behind the Public Security Department, the sun had just come out not long ago, and the place was already crowded with people.

Most of them were professionals, because the result of the questioning could very likely affect whether they could buy cheap potions in the future, which was the most crucial thing.

Various major families, major mercenary groups, adventure groups, various different forces, and even people from the alchemy industry and other industries came to observe.

Because it was a public questioning, it was okay even to stand outside, and someone would project the scene inside.

The Rhine family participated, the Glory family participated, the Orn family participated, the Marcia family participated, the Lant family participated, the legion side participated, the Potion Masters' Guild participated, and all those related to the potion master industry, such as the Power of Nature, participated. The high-level officials of the Glory Wizard Alliance also all arrived.
